Comment:

 The `selected()` function uses `__checked_selected_helper()`, which
 includes a [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/ac057e6c692e7e88b1758eb8dc6dee2312bb5c7b/src/wp-includes
 /general-template.php#L5250 space before the attribute] and single quotes
 around the value:
 `$result = " $type='$type'";`

 "selected.png" shows `<option value='707'selected=selected>` without
 either the space or the quotes. Does your site use a filter on these
 attributes?

 [59889] already added unnecessary spaces in checkbox markup, which I do
 not consider a problem. However, adding an extra space in the user
 dropdown causes unit test failures.
